After two straight seasons with a losing record, Mike Smith’s seven-year tenure as the Atlanta Falcons head coach came to an end, paving the way for the arrival of Dan Quinn. The first-time head coach will try and bring his philosophies from his Seattle Seahawks defense to fix one of the worst defensive units in […]

The Atlanta Falcons are still waiting to announce what everybody already knows, that Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will be their new head coach. Whilst the Falcons will have to wait until after the Super Bowl to officially announce Quinn, reports suggest that they have been putting together the rest of the coaching staff […]

Working on the assumption that the current Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will be the next head coach of the Atlanta Falcons here is a look at who the front runners could be for the defensive coordinator position Ken Norton Jr (Current Seahawks linebackers coach) As a player Norton won three consecutive Super Bowls […]

However, in reality, Falcons defensive line coach Bryan Cox […]
